Both chambers of the U.S. Congress have adopted a resolution calling for Americans to recognize and honor U.S. service members during May’s National Military Appreciation Month.

So with that in mind, the Todd Library is honoring them through our book display and memorabilia. Come join us in a salute to all who have served and defended our great land from before we became a nation to present.

Remember too, on Memorial Day, the one minute of silence at 3 p.m. local time to honor the military’s fallen comrades and to pay tribute to the sacrifices by our nation’s service members and veterans.

August 21, 2017 we will be able to witness a total Solar Eclipse here in Illinois. Come join us at the Todd Library to “read up” on this solar event and then join with others on the campus on Monday the 21st to participate in the Astronomy planned program outside in the plaza north of Collins Hall. 11 AM to 3 PM.
